SECURE A FARM IN THE NORTH PLATTE VALLEY THE NORTH PLATT EVALLEY, frequently called the “Scottsbluff country, ’ ’ is making a more wonderful showing every year in its production of irrigated crops—sugar beets, alfalfa, potatoes, wheat and oats; it is becoming one of the rich est localities fro breeding and fattening of live stock. Many Government irrigated holdings of 160 acres are*being reduced to 80 acres, making it possible for land seekers to secure 80 acre tracks irrigated under the reliable system of the Govern ment on terms that will never again be duplicated. All we can ask is that you visit the Valley and let our agents put you in touch with reliable firms. Ask about the crop tonnage, the in creased population, and note the general prosperity; this will tell you what advance in land values you may expect there in tho next five years. Or, write me for the Burlington’s new publica tion, “North Platte Valley.” Let me help you go there and see for yourself this locality which is the and see this locality which is the talk of the West.
